AVERAGEIF

Excel AVERAGEIF Function

An Excel prepared function called AVERAGEIF determines the average of a range depending on a true or false condition.

It is typed =AVERAGEIF and has three parts:

				
					=AVERAGEIF(range, criteria, [average_range])
				
			

The condition is referred to as criteria, which can check things like:

  • If a number is greater than another number >
  • If a number is smaller than another number <
  • If a number or text is equal to something =

The range in which the function determines the average is called the [average_range].

Note: You do not have to use [average_range].

The function computes the average of the same range as condition if it is not supplied.

Note: A symbol, such as a comma or semicolon, is used to separate the various components of the function;

The symbol is determined by your language preferences.
